Sports Day

Last Thursday the primary school in our little village held their sports day at the football field not far from our house. Little T and her other friends who will join the said school come September showed their support by showing up at the event.

The only problem though, they decided that it was more fun to play at the playground which was right beside the football field.

Here’s little T being pushed on the swing by her best friend F …

Next year though will be different. They won’t be allowed to play at the playground on sports day. These little ones will actually be included in the event! How time flies. It’s bittersweet actually. Part of me feels she’s growing up way too fast, but the other is excited for her to join “big school” because I know she will certainly enjoy it.

My son will start proper school this September as well. I am so excited! So many things that had happened to him when he started preschool. Mostly good like being more sociable and friendly! Cant wait for what the new school will bring =) #countrykids
